If the printer has an ethernet connection, you can plug it into the network. If the printer has a network aware driver, it will be discovered automatically. Otherwise, you will have to add an IP connection for it.
If the printer isn't network ready, you will need an ethernet print serve adapter or combination router/print server which can interface with a USB or parallel printer, as applicable.

Details would help. Do you have a network capable printer or just a standard USB printer?
If you only have a USB printer you will need to purchase a USB printer server.
Once you have what you need you have to configure the network settings. If the printer is network capable than you'll have to read the owners guide.
If you added a USB print server, you'll have to read the owner's guide for the USB print server.

In WinXP:
Just install a printer in server and set the permission to everyone with full access.
Access the client system and install the network printer on that client system.
When you go on to print, just open the print dialog box and select the appropriate printer (server printer) and print it.

Plug the CAT5e or CAT6 cable into the port on your printer.
